IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2011-05-09
Abstract: In a rule-based system for monitoring process adherence, first and second processing patterns are received and merged to provide a merged processing pattern. Each processing pattern, which may be expressed in a state graph representation, embodies at least a portion of a desired software code development process. Optionally, the merged processing pattern may be presented to a subject-matter expert to obtain feedback thereon. The merged processing pattern may then be converted into an executable process verification rule for use in monitoring process adherence. In an embodiment, development process event data is compared to the executable process verification rules. Violations of the rules result in the generation of failure indications that may be stored and subsequently reported as needed. In this manner, efficiency of automated process adherence monitoring systems may be improved when determining the level of compliance by developers with one or more software code development processes.

Title: Compressed video decoding delay reducer
Inventor: MATTHEWS KIM N
IPC: H04N5/00
Filed: 2010-03-11
Abstract: In a digital video network, an encoded multimedia data stream is transmitted over the network to the end user terminal where it is decoded for viewing by a subscriber. The network includes a decoding delay reducer, which processes the encoded multimedia data stream to optimize the multimedia data stream to the operating condition of the digital video network. The optimization of the multimedia data stream enables the end user terminal to decode the encoded multimedia data stream sooner after receipt, which reduces channel change time experienced at the end user terminal due to decoding delay.

IPC: H04B1/76
Filed: 2008-03-07
Abstract: A system and method are provided for removing quadrature imbalance errors in received data. The method accepts an unbiased training sequence in a quadrature demodulation receiver. An unbiased training sequence has a uniform accumulated power evenly distributed in a complex plane, and includes predetermined reference signals (p) at frequency +f and predetermined mirror signals (pm) at frequency -f. The unbiased training sequence is processed, generating a sequence of processed symbols (y) at frequency +f, representing complex plane information in the unbiased training sequence.  Each processed symbol (y) is multiplied by the mirror signal (pm), and an unbiased quadrature imbalance estimate Bm is obtained at frequency (4). Using quadrature imbalance estimates, channel estimates, and processed symbols, an imbalance-corrected symbol can be generated.
Patent CA-2794121-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DOVE JEFFREY S
IPC: D06M10/00
Filed: 2011-03-23
Abstract: Methods for the conditioning of bioprosthetic material employ bovine pericardial membrane. A laser directed at the fibrous surface of the membrane and moved relative thereto reduces the thickness of the membrane to a specific uniform thickness and smoothes the surface. The wavelength, power and pulse rate of the laser are selected which will smooth the fibrous surface as well as ablate the surface to the appropriate thickness. Alternatively, a dermatome is used to remove a layer of material from the fibrous surface of the membrane. Thinning may also employ compression. Stepwise compression with cross-linking to stabilize the membrane is used to avoid damaging the membrane through inelastic compression. Rather, the membrane is bound in the elastic compressed state through addition cross-linking. The foregoing several thinning techniques may be employed together to achieve strong thin membranes. The finally thinned membrane may then be treated by capping of calcification nucleation sites and borohydride reduction. The leaflets may be formed to have more than one region of uniform thickness, such as a thicker peripheral sewing region.
